Informations du projet
The combination of buildings and landscape at its edge, make the Kings Dock an exception amongst the Waterfront. A site which completes the great challenge of the renovation of the City of Liverpool.
The Masterplan’s ambition is to create a new type of public space, a real place of life, one that is open, attractive, sustainable, and lies between both the built and the natural. Thus, the Kings Dock is organized around a project of multiple renovations, addressing the urban, the architectural, the landscape and the social, taking into consideration both the emblematic value and complexity of the site. The project creates a new dialogue between the River Mersey, the Kings Dock basins and the City of Liverpool and the heart of the dock is treated with porosities to connect the central public space with the dynamics of the city center. To re-imagine the site in a spirit of continuity but also renewal, the proposal responds to three important themes:
- Open and Connect the Site
- Share and Densify the Site
- Innovate and Control Costs and Deadlines
